In short: Perfect conditions for a perfect eventIn full: Although a small number of runners this felt like a much bigger event and everything was top class.

Many thanks to the organisers for providing us with a marathon in South Wales - I hope some of the negative criticism in the ratings and them from doing a great job. There are not many who can put on a fantastic event like this and we runners need more of them.

Also many thanks to all the volunteers you were brilliant especially those in the last six miles.
